6: Global Positioning Systems
Now-a-days, geo-scientists are confronted with problems in geo-referencing
satellite imagery or Arial photos. To this end, often an existing map of the
area is used,
in the absence of any maps, they would need to apply a fast
but accurate method for geo-referencing, which will confront them with
satellite positioning technology (GPS).
This course will start with the fundamental aspects of GPS, and then it will
lead towards various GPS measurements, their corresponding accuracies,
